Donna’s Story: Advocating for Children Placed Outside the Care of Their Parents
As Donna shows, they are not defined by their childhood experiences but embody hope and courage.

“Our family would not be in the shape we are now had we not had this experience and support. The Taking Responsibility course has changed the lives of our family for the better. It provided a positive, proactive pathway for us all to recover and rebuild our lives after horrific trauma.”
